i've been dimly aware of this stuff for a long time, i remember in my late teens (circa early 90s) reading stuff about pole shifts and it seemed a little off the left field but since then a lot of science is lining up to suggest that in fact planets can have crustal slippage due to magnetic forces and that stars periodically are induced or naturally have really big explosions on them that cause all kinds of other crazy stuff (eg, a massive ejection of material that condenses over some decades later and lead to meteor storms)
there is no question that pole shifts happen
there is probably dozens or more geological discoveries that suggest that lava with a lot of ferromagnetic material was erupted while the earth's field was oriented different ways
this is the most extreme part of it but the most important thing to understand is this:

anything that increases the amount of eletrons in the upper atmosphere increases cloud formation
